Criminal records check – Health care providers
The Criminal Records Review Act requires most health care providers and practitioners who work with us to have a criminal records check. If you're a member of a professional licensing body recognized by the Act, you don't need to go through the process again.
The Ministry of Justice (Security Programs division) conducts criminal records checks for our contracted providers and practitioners who need them. You can contact our Procurement Services team for more information about how to request a criminal records check.
Submitting a vendor complaint
If you have a concern or complaint about our vendor selection process, you can use our vendor complaint form to request a review of the process.
